So 6 is essentialy a perfect white?

I am guessing 4 - 6 are the perfect whites. I like the look of the 8's there though, but if I can't see crap I guess it's not worth it, lol.

Maybe just throw in some 10's for a car show or something.

4300K is perfect white. 5000K is crystal wite, 6000K has a slight blue to it, 7000K has more blue to it. and with my 7000k's i can agree with Moogley, don't go higher then 8K cause in bad weather even with HIDs i can't see shizzle. other then road signs lol. when i get BiXenon's i am going with 6000k's

Top is your notmal H4 bulb and the bottom is a Bixenon, the bixenon is basically a hid bulb that move to adjust the beam of the light the same way a Halogen bulb does.

Thats awesome. I saw something on that "how it's made" show earlier about them building those lights, but I didn't get to see the finished product, lol.

It's actualy kind of people intensive, and alot of tedious hand welding to do.

Just to give ya the general idea of the look


I really wouldn't mind seeing that one, it is a prety boring show, but they have some interesting stuff sometimes.

I want to suggest some things, like turbo's, car rims, led's, etc...

I always forget their e-mail address though.
